2010 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500 Overview

Introduction

The 2010 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500 successfully combines the hauling capacity of a long-bed pickup with the comfort of a five-passenger sport utility vehicle.

Available in LS, LT, and LTZ trims the Chevy Avalanche comes in one configuration, a half-ton, full-size pickup with four doors, room for up to six passengers and outfitted with a unique, fold-down rear bulkhead accessing an enclosed bed. All Avalanche models come with a standard 320-hp 5.3-liter V8 FlexFuel engine with Active Fuel Management coupled to a six-speed automatic transmission. Safety features that come standard on all models include front seat and side curtain airbags; LATCH rear-seat child safety seat anchors, Stabilitrak with Proactive Roll Avoidance and the OnStar crash-notification system.

For 2010, the Chevrolet Avalanche adds a USB port to every standard radio. The 2010 LT trim receives automatic climate control, rear parking sensors, power adjustable pedals, a remote vehicle starter and Bose audio speakers. The LTZ trim adds an upgraded audio system with voice activated navigation and a rear-parking camera for 2010.
